[QUOTE="Niamh's Mum, post: 115558, member: 24269"] Hi, Thanks for that info. I've ordered Niamh a rufus bear, so we're awaiting that in the post. Just had our first meeting with the Diabetic Nurse. She was lovely and very supportive. Niamh is on Novomix 30, twice a day. The keytones have gone from her urine now, but still got blood sugars of 4+. BG is coming down. Tonight is was 14.9. That's great as over the weekend is just read 'HI', so it's just nice to have a reading! She's coping fantastically well and asked this morning and tonight to do her own BG, so we're making advances. She's also coping brilliantly with the injections - 1000 times better than I ever thought she would. Telephoned the hospital unit a short while ago, as she came home from school complaining of a headache. I thought is was just because she is still really tired coming out of school and assumed she would settle down when she got home and had something to eat and a dose of paracetamol. By 6.30pm, she was still complaining and the DN had switched her phone onto answer machine. Usually, I'm a confident mum of 3 beautiful girls, but I'm just that frightened of missing something I should be picking up on. Hospital said to give her a dose of brufen as well and keep and eye on her. It could just be a build up of the week we've had. Will keep you informed of our progress. Take care everyone.
